162 Appendix
Other requirements
Requirements for the thickness of the die-cut label paper, peeling strength against backing
paper, and the adhesive agent that can be used with the printer are shown in the figure below:
Die-Cut Label Paper Thickness, Peeling Strength, and Adhesive Agent
Peeling strength of the label against backing paper, measured by FINAT FTM-1 (Europe), ASTM D3330/D3330M-02
(U.S.A.).
Note:
❏ Total of thermal paper and backing paper: 145
m or less (excluding adhesive agent)
❏ Adhesive agent: acrylic emulsion
Requirements for Continuous Label Paper
Continuous label paper is label roll paper without labels die cut in predefined sizes. There are
types, back slit type or cut-off edge type:
Feature: Label size (length) is variable with an autocutter; therefore, it is possible to print labels
of various sizes. Compared with die-cut label, it is economic because of no die-cut cut-off edges.
Note:
Cut-off edges make it easier to remove a label from backing paper.
